Bacon sandwiches for being delicious Beer for being alcoholic, Bethesda for letting us mod these wonderful games.
Everyone who's ever helped anyone learn how to use blender/gimp/3dmax/maya/photoshop/nifscope because without the forum posts out there, and the tutorials here and there this mod, and many other mods I suspect, would never get made.

Service rifle was always my preferred weapon of choice in FNV, however, it suffered from some major issues. It was weak, I disliked the sight ring always blocking my view, and some other stuff I forgot besides being particularly loathsome in general.
Then there came Honest Hearts and the Survivalist rifle, I thought my search for a perfect Service rifle was over. But then the gun started to bug me, the sights again, the fact that it was using a 12.7mm pistol cartridge instead of a rifle round, and the general look of the gun, So... I changed it.
Based off the Meshes of the Service Rifle and the Survivalists Rifle, I hereby, hitherto, and henceforth present:
Requires Honest Hearts and Lonesome Road (in progress stuff) I'll probably upload an HH only file eventually.
Heartbreaker
Re-meshed and Refinished, sort of, Survivalist Rifle Extended Barrel Extended Magazine 16 rounds, with weapon mod that will increase to 28 rounds Front Hand Grip slimmed Now fires .308 Rounds Damage increased from 48/48 crit to 70/85 crit (for reference an anti-material rifle issomething like 110/110 crit Front Hand Grip Fasteners changed from hose clamps to screws Top sight-rail shortened Front Pin sight repaired and outer pins lengthened. DIY flourecent paint on said front pins to give it that wasteland modification feel Edited main texture, complete with corny slogan Should be compatible with stock weapon mods, and will soon include some mods specific to the gun

Note:
May sooner or later put together a custom armor set to go with the gun, but doing this mod alone took about 18 hours of learning and hair-pulling and maniacal laughing to accomplish.
Also, if damage is considered O.P. ill upload a kid safe version later.
Any issues leave a post in the comments and ill try and address it
